We consider the formulation of entropic gravity in two spacetime dimensions. The usual gravitational force law is derived even in the absence of area, as normally required by the holographic principle. A special feature of this perspective…
By using the Kaniadakis statistics, we discuss the modifications of Newtonian gravity and radial velocity profile in the light of Verlinde's formalism for gravitational entropy. After considering the implications of k-statistics on the…
This article is an attempt to complement some recent developments on conservation laws with stochastic forcing. In a pioneering development, Feng $&$ Nualarthave developed the entropy solution theory for such problems and the presence of…
Entanglement entropy is often speculated as a strong candidate for the origin of the black-hole entropy. To judge whether this speculation is true or not, it is effective to investigate the whole structure of thermodynamics obtained from…
Based on a tentative interpretation of gravity as a pressure force, a scalar theory of gravity was previously investigated. It assumes gravitational contraction (dilation) of space (time) standards. In the static case, the same Newton law…
Theorists of entropic (emergent) gravity put forward that what has been regarded as unobserved dark matter might instead be the product of quantum effects that can be looked at as emergent energy (EE). Here we describe a novel…
We consider the controversial hypothesis that gravity is an entropic force that has its origin in the thermodynamics of holographic screens. Several key aspects of entropic gravity are discussed. In particular, we revisit and elaborate on…
The theory of entropic gravity conjectures that gravity emerges thermodynamically rather than being a fundamental force. One of the main criticisms of entropic gravity is that it would lead to quantum massive particles losing coherence in…
A unified formulation of the density functional theory is constructed on the foundations of entropic inference in both the classical and the quantum regimes. The theory is introduced as an application of entropic inference for inhomogeneous…
In this letter we explore the foundations of entropic cosmology and highlight some important flaws which have emerged and adopted in the recent literature. We argue that, when applying entropy and temperature on the cosmological horizon by…
We present a novel derivation of Einstein equations from the balance between Clausius entropy crossing the boundary of a local causal diamond and entanglement entropy associated with its horizon. Comparing this derivation with the…
Recent work giving a classification of kinematic and vorticity conservation laws of compressible fluid flow for barotropic equations of state (where pressure is a function only of the fluid density) in $n>1$ spatial dimensions is extended…
A possible source of black hole entropy could be the entanglement of quantum fields in and out the horizon. The entanglement entropy of the ground state obeys the area law. However, a correction term proportional to a fractional power of…
In this article, we investigate the assumption of equipartition of energy in arguments for the entropic nature of gravity. It has already been pointed out by other authors that equipartition is not valid for low temperatures. Here we…
Applying the theory of self-adjoint extensions of Hermitian operators to Koopman von Neumann classical mechanics, the most general set of probability distributions is found for which entropy is conserved by Hamiltonian evolution. A new…
We argue that experiments with ultra-cold neutrons in the gravitational field of Earth disprove recent speculations on the entropic origin of gravitation.
'Relativistic thermodynamics' should be understood not as a generalization of a non-relativistic theory but as an application of a general thermodynamic framework, neutral as to spacetime setting and allowing arbitrary conserved quantities,…
We study the thermodynamics of modified black holes proposed in the context of gravity's rainbow. A notion of intrinsic temperature and entropy for these black holes is introduced. In particular for a specific class of modified…
In this paper, we generalize Verlinde's entropic gravity proposal on the other fundamental interactions of nature. We begin by introducing the entropic origin of the Coulomb's electrostatic force, and then the magnetic force, by assuming…
Motivated by the notion that the mathematics of gravity can be reproduced from a statistical requirement of maximal entropy, we study the consequence of introducing an entropic source term in the Einstein-Hilbert action. For a spatially…
